Should have read specs. properly - who would expect the property would not have WiFi. Bed very comfortable, rooms spacious , handy having garage & access to inside. We had a safety concern that we have reported to the property manager Outside the back door leading to the garden is an old hot water service that protrudes into the walkway - we both managed to hit our heads on it. it should be removed. Regards Arnie

Disappointing
We were quite disappointed with this accommodation. There were quite a few issues with the property on arrival on Saturday so we got straight on to the agent on Monday and they sorted them out quite satisfactorily. However, it wasn't what we expected from the listing. I have major spinal and neck problems and was very happy with the chairs in the eating area on the photo. But on arrival the dining suite was nothing like what was on the listing. On notifying the agent they did bring me in a much more suitable chair but they shouldn't have had to. The carpets were very dirty and the curtains were a disaster. Far too long and dragged on the floor. The tops of them were all over the place and some of them wouldn't even open. The better bed was in the second bedroom without the walk in wardrobe so we were having to walk back and forwards to the main bedroom with the walk in wardrobe. There was a BBQ there without a gas bottle and were told that the BBQ shouldn't even have been there and a note on the frij requested us to clean the BBQ if we used it! The back yard was a mess and very overgrown when we arrived but again the agent was wonderful and organised a gardener to come out and clean it up. Not a good welcome! We paid good money for this stay and feel it just wasn't worth what we paid.
